OG 608WHP Nissan R35 GT-R is Back and Better! // Nürburgring

[@JS_R35]

Thanks for the lap, Misha. Good to see you again. I figured out that the engine light was flashing/limp because the engine oil level was quite a bit below optimal... It's something that I usually check after I do after the long journey to the Ring/a few laps, but I totally forgot this time. Due to this, the oil pressure would have been really low around certain corners when you were pushing and then cutting (engine light flashing). I originally thought it maybe was a fuel cut issue, maybe due to engine knock/pre-ignition, so I changed the map settings to lower the boost while you were driving. The temps were good, and the fuel was good, so I had a feeling afterwards that those weren't the issues. After the lap, the car then put up a 'low oil level' alert once I started it up again, which explained things. It's a shame as it's my fault for not checking, and the performance on the day could have been better overall, but a great lap either way! I will work on completely improving the suspension. I was disappointed with myself that the changes I made still weren't good enough this time around... it shows how hard it is to get right. But I am now looking at a whole new setup, which will be a lot more track focused with custom spring rates. I guess it's a constant evolution on the car as I gain more knowledge on things I can do to improve it and then have you test it out! Next time will be a big difference in a positive way with the complete new setup... 3rd times the charm... hopefully! Thanks again.

[@icey_dicey_1454]

Goodluck...I cant wait for the evolution. The car is a rocket. Loved the vid...

[@DarioooZ]

Amazing car mate! Don’t be to harsh on yourself. A lot of people wish they had your car. Still excited what’s coming in the future!

[@JS_R35]

​@icey_dicey_1454 Thanks mate!

[@RDSAlphard]

Oh, so the issue were oil level, damn! I'm glad the car were clever enough to give limp mode instead of grenade the engine. Can't wait to see which suspension you choose next.

That Losing Weight section of the video was a nice addition, great on JS for making Misha open up, its been a while since we've heard about mishas journey and its nice to see how he's started to contextualize his past and present.

[@Trapper50cal]

I was so in love with Skylines...R32, R33, R34...this GTR was too jarringly different for me to get on board completely. But they've grown on me quite a bit and I appreciate them for what they are and don't judge them for what they aren't. Seriously overbuilt bottom end that can handle tons of power. They are Rippers!

[@chickenmanmackenzie3525]

i agree

[@Desert_Spec]

People said the same about the R33 GT-R and then the R34 GT-R as with each model iteration they were getting bigger, heavier and more digitalized when compared to the O.G Godzilla R32 GT-R and competitors such as the RX-7, Evo 6 etc.... It took time, but they eventually grew on the public and are now seen as part of the golden era of JDM. The R35 was seen as too digital and too heavy to be a good successor but by today's standards, its relatively analogue and for perspective, a 09 GT-R like the one above weighs the same as a G87 BMW M2, even with the GT-Rs AWD system and rear wheel steering. The R35 is still writing its strong legacy, even after 17yrs of production.

[@jesadak]

Bruh this guy is so wholesome. Many blessings to you R35 owner.

[@graysonlove27]

Great run. Car sounds awesome! BC coilovers are good for the street, but if you want to get serious on the track you need to move up to KW Suspension V3 Coilover. They even have an option to adjust ride height inside the car. Once you have the suspension and proper alignment/camber, you can get some sticky tires. Add a roll cage to stiffen up the chassis and give you some extra protection. Fire protection kits are not expensive either. Good time to install if you're going to mount a roll cage. The fun is in the build - Great work so far. You have the best driver to give you proper feedback. I wish I had Misha when I built my time attack miata.

[@BrotherTim-oy3pe]

Wow a great driver and a great car WHAT A PERFECT COMBINATION

[@DeathScy7he]

All owners/passengers need to behave like this more. Try not to talk much (unless there's a yellow) and just take in the lap and learn as much as possible as 7 minutes goes by quick. The less distractions the more Misha can focus which results in a more phenomenal lap for you.

GTR 👌👌. It's a super car in sheep's clothing. i know every single car the GTR passed on the nurbergring track that day, went home and wanted to buy a GTR. It's one of the best cars I've ever driven, I wish I never sold it. I brought a N/A Carrera 911 and the engine blew up 2weeks after I brought it. Japanese Engineering all the way for me now.

stick with the BC coilovers but just a little bit stiffer spring rate, you might just have it set to a too soft a setting, that car was handling like a roller coaster on rails. next time you take it out you should attach a camera on bumper if allowed.

In regards to the losing weight. I know people don't like to talk about it. I was on the same space 2022 until I said I had to start to lose weight, calorie deficit and lift heavy circles. (Funny enough it was after a heart break, the best flavor Pre Workout.) Man when I shed the weight (8kg). It really affects you not only physically, Mentally too. Its like you are oozing confidence, and you feel like you have more energy. Also damn that car hit 160mph, that thing is fast.

I just can’t understand how people willingly give their car instead of trying on their own. I mean he either crashes the car or takes out so much life, he pushes the cars too much…. I would never ever give somebody else my car to damage it and he does it even when he is not crashing(chassi, transmission ect) . Why would you buy a car be an enthusiast and than let somebody else drive it. Even if you want to learn…. There are so many other options to learn. Sim or watch videos or try it on ur own. He drives good no doubt, but he destroys cars which are not his, I would not want to do this. But it’s a opinion to be clear.

Hi Mischa, out of curiosity, do you know why they changed the location of the start/finish line to do a lap of the Nordschliffe from the small straight between the entrance to the GP track (around the 5:27 mark) to where it is now on the longest straight stretch of the track (closer to 4:50 mark)? or is it because it's more accessible to the public where it is now?
